[QUOTE="ConfederateHalf, post: 24643831, member: 27946"]Considering the fact that the change from copper to zinc to save money proved a vain endeavor by the mint, it’s probably high time that Congress abolish the cent, just as Canada finally did. It is now a useless denomination. I am presently working on an album of 1959 to present Lincoln’s, working to build the highest grade set possible strictly from circulation pulls from roll searching. It’s about 99% complete and I love adding these occasional toners when the eye appeal is good. The trick is finding them devoid of zinc rot, mint rinse spots, verdigris, and other problems. Amazingly, I have a substantial percentage of coins in this album that are mint state - both pre-1982 and post-1982. Some came from BU roll dumps that I was lucky to have intercepted not long after others hauled them to the bank to cash-in. All of my 1959’s are BU, as are many from the 1960’s and ‘70’s.[/QUOTE]
